Tallinn's atmospheric Old Town is an enthralling hodgepodge of medieval streets and spires. It's a small city, and the tourist areas are safe and easily explored on foot. Buy a Tallinn Card if intending to use buses, trolleys or trams. For a look into Tallinn's past, visit Rocca-al-Mare Open Air Museum's typical rural Estonian taverns, windmills and watermills, see the onion-domed 1900 cathedral or join the bustle in historic Town Hall Square. St. Olav's spire was once the tallest in the world.

Fantastic, informative tour lead by Katarina. She was so friendly and helpful and showed us lots of interesting places around the city. It was brilliant to see Tallinn through the eyes of a local and to benefit from all her insights. There were only two of us on the tour so we had a really personal experience. Highly recommended.

We took the private Accessible tour of Tallinn, with Maria & Juri. Both were wonderful! Since we were in a car, we were able to see both the lower town and toompea hill. Maria spoke excellent English, and had a thorough knowledge of Tallinn’s history & sites. Tallinn was a pleasant surprise for me on this cruise. So glad we chose Saku for our tour.

Andres was a wonderful guide and knew a lot about Estonian nature, history and culture to share with us. We saw some beautiful nature sights (the Jägala waterfall was fantastic!) and ate a delicious lunch at a traditional Estonian tavern. You should definitely book this tour to see a variety of fun sights outside of Tallinn!!
